Early Childhood Education & Care - Information Session

Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care (CHC30121) qualification reflects the role of educators in early childhood education

and care who work in regulated children’s education and care services in Australia. They support children’s wellbeing, and development

in the context of an approved learning framework. Educators use a range of well-developed skills and knowledge using discretion and

judgment when carrying out their work in the context of established policies and procedures. They may work independently or under the

guidance of others, though in some contexts that guidance may not be on-site.

Early childhood educators work in long daycare centres, family daycare, pre-schools, or kindergartens. The program is offered by the

Melbourne City Institute of Education (MCIE).

The program will run for 40 weeks, and it will be two days per week from 10 am to 2:00 pm commencing in Melton.

Upon completing this program, participants will obtain a nationally recognised qualification.
